@jeffowski autism assessments at best have long wait times (especially for adults) and at worst have long wait times and cost a lot of money. Mine was thousands of dollars. Most people can't afford it, so the options are self-diagnosis or nothing.

It's 3 days since my iron infusion and I've been sleeping like a log, which is very unlike me.

Last time I had an infusion my ferritin level was probably around 25, which is definitely too low, and it took over a week for me to notice a difference. My level prior to Thursday was ~65, so maybe that's why the improvement is sooner?

The infusion clinic was pretty odd; hearing nurses (and the pharmacists at the nearby pharmacy) tell people about how they should start feeling like they have more energy soon, that for some it's a huge difference. It almost seemed like a cult which I've joined and now want to tell everyone about.

@futzle I believe that computers hate all people equally but that doesn't seem to be an option

@mcc I remember the Oracle onboarding I did in 2010 included some business ethics training that specifically listed lap dances as an example of a disallowed business expense. Ever since then I've wondered what the story behind that was.

@atomicpoet I keep hoping for a burst. Just the environmental impacts of the energy use... Not to mention people losing their jobs and replaced by a bot that makes stuff up...

@thomasfuchs and to think, he could get a cat for way cheaper

@MediaActivist Oh now I'm thinking about the times I visited Sheffield before Covid. Do have some Thorntons and ride the supertram for me (assuming either is feasible).

I've disconnected mostly from my uk family who don't care about Covid. I'm sorry you're dealing with that
